Rule Strange: Urban Legends That Don't Exist

Chapter 962 The Little Theater of Desire ([-]): Lost in the Star Chain
The girl's expression became serious in an instant, and her dexterous fingers danced on the keyboard, calling up the anti-program injector modified from the command prompt, and launched an injection attack on the little doll on the computer desktop.

'This is the legendary offense as defense? ! '

Before Wish had time to react, he was punched in the face by the faceless man who suddenly appeared in front of him, and he was knocked over by countless somersaults before he was able to stand still.

"what?"

'what! '

The surprise of the girl is that the intrusion program was not eliminated in an instant, and the surprise of the wish is that the girl can affect her hiding in the server LAN through the LAN.

The means of “communication” between Wish and the girl comes from the [Quantum Entanglement Communication] that Chen Yan once described to her——Wish deconstructed and simulated [Quantum Entanglement Communication], and simulated it to obtain a quantum clone. ability, so it can exist in the form of a "program virus".

But the girl is still able to parry, and can even counterattack the "data-state life virus with consciousness" after reacting in an instant, which means that according to the knowledge she has, the girl is at least a "godly programmer".

The desire came fiercely, and the girl did not give up easily, so the battle went on for countless rounds.

The battle finally came to an end when the wish was almost completely frantic because the wish could not be fulfilled, and the girl's fingers were almost knocked out of lubricating oil.

"You only make a little money a month! Why are you working so hard!"

The reminder from the computer speaker made the girl stunned for a moment, and then she immediately reacted and responded:

"My monthly salary is hundreds of thousands of imperial pounds! The boss of the company is closer than my own father!"

When she heard this statement, Chen Yan's face seemed to appear in front of Wishing—she immediately realized that if Chen Yan faced this situation, he would probably say these words.

After this communication, the two backed off for the time being—Xuan found out that the other party just wanted to defend, and the girl also realized that Wish was not here to steal data or destroy server hardware, so the battle could be fought after each took a step back. It's over for now.

In the ensuing communication, Wish learned that the girl's name was Huo Nai, and she had just applied for a job as a programmer at William Adams Group a few days ago, and was sent here after signing a confidentiality contract.

Huo Nai didn't even know where it was, how far it was from the mainland of the empire, and what it was for - after being sent here through a private line, her job was only to maintain the normal operation of the server's hardware, And protect the server information from being obtained.

As for the specific information of this server room - what data is stored, where does the data come from, and where will it be sent to - these issues, Huo Nai refused to say.

She told Wish that she came here to work to earn money to support her family. The wages here are very generous, and there are a lot of younger brothers and sisters in the family who are waiting to be fed. She must continue this job.

Wish racked his brains to tell her what to say, but Huo Nai was very smart, and his overall quality was ridiculously high. Even if Wish used some words that were almost deadly to ordinary people, he couldn't get any useful information out of Huo Nai's mouth.

Wish couldn't obtain information from the server maintained by Huo Nai, and Huo Nai couldn't get rid of the "biological program virus"-like wish from the local area network, so after a whole day of stalemate, the latter made a compromise——

Huo Nai gave Wish an IP address, and told Wish that this IP address belonged to the starship that sent her here.

Other than that, she doesn't know anything.

Huo Nai was obviously vigilant, wishing to know that the IP address in her hand must have been obtained through abnormal means.

There is no need to pursue wishes.

I wish I couldn't get useful information, and I didn't want to waste time here. After saying goodbye to Huo Nai, I followed the IP address and came to a human extraterrestrial colony hidden in the dark starry sky!
It is not unfair to wish to describe the extraterrestrial colonies as "hidden" in the starry sky, because the darkness in the starry sky is much "darker" than human beings usually imagine, and the large and small celestial bodies intersect with each other, and the light is very bright. Difficult to refract in - For the starry sky, the tiny human extraterrestrial colony is much smaller than a grain of sand, as long as the colony is hidden in a corner of a certain celestial body, it is quite difficult to be found.

Wish entered the base along a radio frequency band, and found that [STR-591] was marked on the spacecraft landing pad in the center of the colony—this is the unique Starlink colony logo of Stavor Heavy Industry. For the under construction As far as the Starlink colony is concerned, 591 is already a rather late number—this means that it is far enough away from the mainland of the empire.

Huo Nai was recruited by the William Adams Group, how could he maintain the machine room of the Mechanics Association and be sent to the work place by Stavor Heavy Industries?
Wishing to think, she first touched [Huo Nai's server room] along the network cable from [Wildness], and then came here through the IP address provided by Huo Nai—the combination of all these clues can at least prove some facts—— There is a cooperative relationship between Stavor Heavy Industries, Mechanical Ascension Secret Society, and William Adams Group.

Wish is not surprised by this result, she has long known that the development of this world will inevitably follow this path.

She came up with an inexplicable idea again—Chen Yan must also know that the future will be like this—big companies cooperate and merge with each other until an irresistible behemoth appears—Chen Yan knows, but Chen Yan cannot predict With the appearance of this behemoth, there is no way to take any effective measures when he is so busy.

In the vision of a complete wish, the extraterrestrial colony is under construction at a high speed. Although the physical environment of the celestial body itself has not been effectively modified, and there is not much population flow, due to the high degree of automation of mechanical equipment, the production capacity of the entire colony has almost been reduced. Full.

Wish noticed a bit of confusion, that is, the scale of this base is not large, and the 5 floors underground are only functional buildings, not human residences.

'They didn't want to populate the colonies. '

With such a small scale, not to mention the 591 Starlink colonies, even if the number of Starlink colonies reached [-] to [-], it would not be able to accommodate many people.

' Or maybe the functional planning of the different colonies is different. '

Wish moved along the network cable, entered an encrypted server of Stavor Heavy Industry, and quickly collected some...unspeakable information——

The first piece of news that is more explosive is that Stavor Heavy Industries' interstellar colony construction plan was not originally for colonization!But to build a military base!
The second unbelievable piece of information is that the interstellar colony construction plan is not limited to the William Adams Group, Stavor Heavy Industries, and the Mechanical Ascension Secret Society, but all the forces and business groups that can be named in the entire empire are involved—— They unite!

The information that the third wish cannot understand at all is that at this point in time, the empire is actually in a state of war mobilization.

Why a state of mobilization for war?
Who will the empire fight with?

The completion of the Wanwei Internet of Things has represented that the entire surface has become a [Star Federation] in a practical sense, and even those rebellious superpowers have been wiped out and swallowed up by the superhuman society of the empire - the empire is gone at all Enemies—not even imaginary enemies!

So why start a war without an enemy?
I don't understand wishes.

She is no longer the spirit of the universe, and cannot observe the world through the world's vision——

Her vision has been narrowed by falling into the mortal world, and she can no longer understand everything from the perspective of God.

Serving the interstellar colony—it should be called an interstellar military base now—almost without exception, the staff who serve here are all superhumans, or demihumans whose physique is much stronger than humans in one aspect.

On the contrary, most of the base managers are normal humans. Although there are superhumans, there are not many.

In the vacant search, Hope forgot the mission he had entrusted to himself at the beginning, and crashed into a private local area network like a headless chicken.

When she recovered, the encrypted information exchange status of the server was appearing in front of her.

It was a rudimentary dialog box, in which the two parties exchanging information did not even indicate their respective identities.

[We have been notified, but my family does not have a place, which is different from what I said before. 】

【Well, I know about this situation. A meeting was held this morning, and it was said that most of the family members would stay on the surface. 】

[This is simply the most shameless fraud!They tricked us into building a military base, and now that it's built, all the original promises have been broken! 】

[Don't panic, in your capacity, if you do some work, you can at least take the child over. 】

[But I have more than just children! 】

[My wife also has no quota. 】

There was a short pause in communication here.

【how could be?You are...]

[The situation is much worse than we imagined, this time they can't wait to start combat readiness because of this. 】

[What are the signs?The invasion will not happen all at once, why are they in such a hurry? 】

[They are afraid of sudden death. 】

【how is this possible! 】

[It is possible, according to the third law of Lagrange, the probability of sudden death of human civilization calculated by them is as high as 90.00%. 】

【It's...unbelievable! 】

[The time our civilization has experienced is too short. In fact, judging from the history of the planet, other civilizations have already verified some impossible situations for us. History tells us that everything is possible. 】

【I always think...】

[Always believe that only quantitative changes can lead to qualitative changes, and only when the deterioration phenomenon accumulates enough will it lead to the demise of human beings, unlike the present situation where nothing seems to happen at all. 】

【Yes……】

[That's right. 】

【? 】

[That’s right, it’s true that quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes—what I want to say is that the quantitative changes you don’t know about may have slowly accumulated in unknown places.

Those quantitative changes unknown to ordinary people are the reason why human beings perish. 】

【for example? 】

[Don't you think human civilization is developing too fast? 】

【…】

[It only took 20 years for human civilization to achieve complete industrialization, and quickly entered the post-industrial era after complete industrialization. In a few months, it realized full-scale electronicization and built an Internet of Things based on the entire planet. , established the World Wide Internet of Things Center - do you think this is normal? 】

【I know this is because of the aid of the Outer Gods...】

【What is the Outer God?Where did the Outer God come from?Do you think that the Outer God just appeared from the other side of the starry sky inexplicably, came to your world, brought you electrons, and helped you break out of the earth?What a joke! "The help of the outer gods" was originally the biggest deception in the world! 】

【…】

[The Outer God is not a well-intentioned philanthropist!Why help you? 】

【Why? 】

【That's why the empire gathered its troops, activated its combat readiness, and wanted to launch a great expedition! 】

[Then... those outer gods, those existences who bestow high-end technology on humans, what exactly are they? 】

【You will know. 】

[If you say half and half, I will panic... Apart from you, I have no other comrades. 】

【I am pessimistic about this, [Xun Kuang] never appeared again after making a connection between you and me, I think... Maybe we are all [Xun Kuang elements]. 】

[In any case, we will not give up. 】

【Yes!We can't give up no matter what!
In this way, I will think of a way to see if I can get more places for you. You hold your breath, make a [external observation record], and then record every data—even the angle of light deviation and the temperature difference in space every second. Send me the changes and I'll let you know as soon as I have the exact information! 】

【(data transmission……)】

Looking at the conversation between the two and the incomprehensible data constantly jumping in the simple dialog box, Wish thought to himself:
'Xunkuang elements, aren't they the same existence as that Professor Lauer? '

Wishing to see Chen Baishu from the memory of Professor Lawyer and Chen Yan, he can probably guess what Chen Baishu is - he is most likely a data stream in other universes, in some kind of long transmission Misidentified the IP address, and passed through this world for a short time like a meteor across the night sky——Chen Baishu is the real time traveler.

Wish traced the source through the underlying program of the simple dialog box, obtained the IP addresses of these two people, and then returned to the surface along the network.

At this moment, the empire's first island chain, Days Island, is the mechanical hive.

The night is already deep, and the specific layers of the mechanical hive show a carnival that is even more enthusiastic than the day. People gathered here have various identities in society, and they gather here for various reasons, wanting to enjoy every day. A second of your own time.

In comparison, Days Island Wharf is much quieter. Every night from early morning to three o'clock in the morning is the "forbidden port" time of Days Island Wharf. Wharf staff need to maintain and maintain the wharf, and law enforcement officers need to monitor the wharf. Suspicious situations arise.

Everything will be over in three hours, and tomorrow morning, Days Island Pier will be back to life again.
